Arun District Council hired consultants to investigate short-term options and a formal proposal to protect residents from the eroding coastline along West and East Front Roads.

"It would appear that it is potentially viable to undertake a scheme for the short-term protection of this frontage," Mr Green told councillors.

A bid for less than 1m to pay for the work has been included in the council's submission to the Environment Agency for funding. The consultants' final report into the matter will also include a longer-term sustainable solution for the vulnerable frontage.
